In August's solo episode I share how good it feels to be back doing this after a months break. In this episode: I share where I am at and what I learnt having to surrender not doing Julys solo episode and why it felt good. The importance of listening to our bodies, before they reach their limits. Remembering its an inside job even if everything looks good on the outside. Yes it's great to be inspired by things but remember its about alignment. Just because someone else is doing it, it has to be whats right for you. What embodiment means and why this is the key. We can still feel bad even if things are looking great, feeling good and the connection to yourself is the key. The essence of it all is the journey back to yourself and whats on your heart. The importance of regular check ins with yourself. How does it feel in your nervous system, this will always let you know. Never run so far from yourself you forget who you are. The importance of having grace with yourself. What are you chasing if you are always looking for the next best thing. Let your energy led always. Stop chasing perfection, embody perfectly imperfect. I share all this musings and more. Do share your thoughts on this episode, I'd love to hear from you.

One of the warmest Julys on record is wrapping up in Portland. This week the guys and Katie take a deep dive into the numbers, some detailed hot weather model talk, plus a fire season checkup.

In “Behind Our Anxiety, the Fear of Being Unneeded,” a 2016 New York Times op-ed, the Dalai Lama and Harvard professor and president of the American Enterprise Institute Arthur C. Brooks join together to write: “How strange, then, to see such anger and great discontent in some of the world's richest nations. In the United States, Britain and across the European Continent, people are convulsed with political frustration and anxiety about the future. Refugees and migrants clamor for the chance to live in these safe, prosperous countries, but those who already live in those promised lands report great uneasiness about their own futures that seems to border on hopelessness.Why?” This was an interesting op-ed for me to read a day after I talked with twelve students in my Write! Submit! Support! class out of the Writing Barn in Austin. The students are spread out all over the country and so many of them had difficult Julys when it came to getting words on the page and one eloquently asked, “How do you write when you're so worried about the world?” To my sort of brain that's the perfect time to write because I'm one of those “write your way through it” kind of people, but obviously not all brains are wired like my brain. Thank God, right? It also made me think about our marriage. Shaun is a wicked caretaker and I'm not used to that. He's also severely independent and so when I try to take care of him? It doesn't always happen because he's also super alpha, right? And that makes me feel like . . . Well, like I don't have as much of a purpose, that I'm not needed in that fundamental way that he's needed to unscrew the tops off jars, to get the pressure washer to work, to lift all the heavy things like our dog, Sparty. And I felt the same way when my daughter left for college. Brooks and the Dalai Lama actually address this a bit in that op-ed saying, “Virtually all the world's major religions teach that diligent work in the service of others is our highest nature and thus lies at the center of a happy life. Scientific surveys and studies confirm shared tenets of our faiths. Americans who prioritize doing good for others are almost twice as likely to say they are very happy about their lives. In Germany, people who seek to serve society are five times likelier to say they are very happy than those who do not view service as important. Selflessness and joy are intertwined. The more we are one with the rest of humanity, the better we feel. “This helps explain why pain and indignation are sweeping through prosperous countries. The problem is not a lack of material riches. It is the growing number of people who feel they are no longer useful, no longer needed, no longer one with their societies.” And that's why I often feel unhappy personally. I feel superfluous and I don't want to. How about you? Brooks and the Dalai Lama write: “Feeling superfluous is a blow to the human spirit. It leads to social isolation and emotional pain, and creates the conditions for negative emotions to take root.” So what can you do? On an individual level, they say, do this. “Start each day by consciously asking ourselves, “What can I do today to appreciate the gifts that others offer me?” We need to make sure that global brotherhood and oneness with others are not just abstract ideas that we profess, but personal commitments that we mindfully put into practice.” And from there, they say, we build into a society that is compassionate and happier, where children are educated with practical and ethical skills to move them towards peace and “economic security.” They write, “Many are confused and frightened to see anger and frustration sweeping like wildfire across societies that enjoy historic safety and prosperity. But their refusal to be content with physical and material security actually reveals something beautiful: a universal human hunger to be needed. Let us work together to build a society that feeds this hunger.” But it's more than that. Our society is full of polarities and hate, devisiveness, trolls on internet posts, and it's hard sometimes to not constantly feel personally attacked. And to not attack back. In another op-ed, this time for the Washington Post, the Dalai Lama and Brooks team up again and address this by writing: “Each of us can break the cycle of hatred, starting today. Do you feel that you've been attacked on social media? Respond with warmheartedness, disarming your attacker with forbearance. Overhear someone make a snide remark about people who think as you do? Respond with kindness. Want to say something insulting about people who disagree with you? Take a breath and show generosity, instead.” That sounds impossible, doesn't it? Anger can be a motivating force. Don't we have a right to be angry? Yes, we do. We have the ability to feel a plethora of emotions. The difference is what we do with those feelings--how we act on them--how long they fester. We totally failed at this when the Supreme Court overturned Roe V. Wade and someone was a butt on my Facebook post and Shaun called them a f-stick. I should have used that opportunity to educate and work towards betterment, but instead I was just angry—a person-oriented anger that I used to strike back rather than strike forward. I didn't harness my anger toward social change, toward the system that made this guy think he could say that stuff to me. I just lashed back at him. Brooks and the Dalai Lama write that how we respond can “ . . . help counter the widespread crisis of contempt? Warmheartedness is contagious. Just as people mimic bad behavior, they mimic good behavior. We all want to be happier and better people. The best way for each of us to improve society is to model behavior that offers a way forward. Others will follow. It may take a long time to change society, but it won't come sooner than our own individual actions.” Random Thoughts A robot broke a little boy's finger during a chess match in Russia.

Hello Interactors,This week’s post is coming to you from Avon, Connecticut as we’re about to head north to Maine. We’ve experienced some unseasonably humid days (and nights), a waiter serving bug spray in Cape Cod, and a hot and sticky college campus visit in Rhode Island. I can hear the locals now, “Welcome to New England.”As interactors, you’re special individuals self-selected to be a part of an evolutionary journey. You’re also members of an attentive community so I welcome your participation.Please leave your comments below or email me directly.Now let’s go…WHATA WET SUMMAI’ve become a weather wimp. Or, maybe I always have been. Summers in my native Iowa were hot and humid. I remember nights when the temperature would actually increase as I lay in bed, spread eagle, staring at the ceiling waiting for just a single puff of air to waft through my window. I’m not sure I was ever dry during those Iowa summer months.Humidity makes me sweat more than most. I’m sweating just thinking about it. Perspiring makes me perspire. So you can imagine what I was thinking this week as I, with my family, were descending a long hill downtown Providence, Rhode Island, with air so thick and a sun so hot that it felt like I was walking on a treadmill in a steam bath with a heat lamp over my head. As we approached the banks of the Providence River, we read a sign on one of the buildings that that visitors of the Rhode Island School of Design should check-in at the admissions building. You guessed it, it was at the top of the hill we had just descended. Just two steps up the hill and I had sweat gushing from my head. Part way we encounter a fountain. I soaked the cooling towel I tucked in my backpack and draped if over my skull and was rewarded with a cool tingling sensation down my neck. The bliss was short lived as we trudged up the final steps of the admissions building featuring a sweeping view of Providence and a sign on the door that read, “Closed”.The Northeastern region of the United States is known for its humidity, but July has been unseasonably wet. This is good news for the one thing that everyone agrees is more dreaded during summer than humidity. Mosquitoes. Cape Cod has been hit hard, especially the small town of Wellfleet. The fleet of white vans marked with the name “Mosquito Squad” parked in a lot on the way in to town should be the first clue this area is prone to these ‘Swamp Angels’. The word mosquito is Spanish for ‘little gnat’. I prefer ‘mini-beast’. Bart Morris of the Cape Cod Mosquito Control Project said, while spraying larvicide amidst clouds of mosquitoes, “This is about as bad as I've seen it…biblical in size.” Gabrielle Sakolsky has been with this organization since 1993 and she’s never seen a population boom like this. Dry air usually controls mosquito populations, but not this summer. It’s been a wild July in the Northeast. And it’s not over.Cornell University’s Northeast Regional Climate Center reports all but two days of the first half of July included a flashflood somewhere in the region. July kicked off with a tornado in Delaware and a week later New York subways were flooded. Then came two days of Tropical Storm Elsa with severe thunderstorms and torrents of rain. Connecticut, where we are now, and Maine, where we’re headed next, were hit with five inches of rain and flash flooding. The coasts were slammed with 67 mile per hour winds while New Jersey whipped up another two tornados as winds howled over 100 miles per hour. Then, on July 12th, 10 inches of rain dowsed southeastern Pennsylvania and parts of New Jersey causing major flash flooding.  That’s a lot of extreme weather in less than two weeks. And a lot of moisture.In the first 15 days of July, portions of the Northeast have seen rainfall that is 300% above normal. The Cornell climate center tracks 35 weather sites that stretch from West Virginia to the south to northern tip of Maine in Caribou, which actually was only at 57% of their normal rainfall. Boston was another story. They were 574% above normal. You can see why the mosquitoes were doing a happy dance in Cape Cod. “Eight major climate sites experienced their wettest first half of July on record and another 17 of the sites ranked this July 1-15 period among their 20 wettest on record. In fact, for 12 of the major climate sites, it is already one of the 20 wettest Julys on record.”  ABNORMAL MEMORIES OF NORMALIt’s hard to know what normal is anymore. But the climate change explainers at the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) remind us their analysis includes previous normal weather patterns. They adjust for the effects of climate change periodically and the last time they adjusted was 2011. That’s when the baseline for normal had shifted from the period starting in 1971 and ended in 2000. They created a handy map that demonstrates what plants and animals already knew – the planting zones across the United States had shifted north in latitude and up in elevation as normal temperatures warmed over that 30 year period.The point of analyzing and reporting on weather normals is to reflect what is normal today, and not how the values have changed over time. So NOAA updates their models every decade or so to reflect the “new normal”. It turns out reporting and understanding temperature normals is easier than precipitation normals.NOAA has collected 10 sets of these U.S Climate Normals dating back to 1901. The map below shows how the United States has warmed over the course of these ten segments of time. The blue zones are areas where the temperature was cooler than the 20th century average and the red zones are those areas warmer than average.Looking at these maps tells the story anybody born between 1901-1940 will tell you – generally speaking, it used to be cooler. Though, unfortunately, they can’t really. It’s called generational amnesia and it inflicts all of us. As climate and energy writer David Roberts writes, reflecting the research from two researchers at Columbia: “”extremely hot summers” are 200 times more likely than 50 years ago. Did you know that? Can you feel it?” It’s also part of what is called shifting baseline syndrome. We can’t relate to the baselines of the past. That’s true for temperatures, plant and animal populations, and the more fickle baselines of precipitation. NOAA’s same 10 time segments for U.S. Climate Normals for precipitation don’t show the same gradual nation-wide pattern temperatures do. Even before climate change, precipitation patterns varied greatly across different regions of the U.S. Unlike temperature normals, where we can say its generally getting warmer, we can’t say it’s generally getting wetter or dryer over time. We’re stuck with the more unsatisfactory answer, “It depends.”Take the Southwest as an example. It’s easy to think it’s just been getting gradually drier, but it’s a mixed bag. For the first two sets, 1901-1930 and 1911-1940 it was wetter than the 20th Century average. And then the next four segments were dryer until the 1961-90 segment which shows a mix of wetter and dryer across a mix of zones. The two most recent periods, including 1981-2010, have been wetter than average. This regional precipitation variation is evident even in the Northeast precipitation numbers Cornell provided for the first half of July. Caribou, Maine was drier than usual while Boston blew the normal out of the proverbial water. Given how dry and hot the Southwest has been, recency bias – the tendency to favor recent events over historic ones – will probably will keep people from believing that is true; before, that is, generational amnesia and baseline syndrome take over. But some weather events leave a lasting impression. As it did for my father-in-law, John Pappalardo, who grew up in Winsted, Connecticut. In August of 1955, John’s sophomore year at the University of Connecticut on his way to becoming a dentist, the Mad River running through Winsted flooded. “There’s a reason we called it the Mad River”, John told me, as he recalled the images of the flood: “Our two story house was flooded with water as high as the thermostat on the wall. We stayed up all night on the second floor as water ran down our street. It took a full day before someone came by in a boat, rowed in our front door, and rescued us from the staircase. But we were lucky, my friend’s house was split in half. You could see the dishes sitting in the cupboard from the street, just as they had left it.”Two hurricanes in as many weeks had ripped through Southern New England. First came Hurricane Connie between August 11th to the 14th which dumped four to six inches in two days saturating the land with water. Then, three days later, on August 17th, came Hurricane Diane dumping nearly 20 inches of rain in two days. Both exceeded New England records. With the land already saturated with water from the first hurricane, the banks of the Mad River couldn’t contain the onslaught of water from the second. Thus began a cascade of flooding through Winsted, down the Mad River, and into the Farmington River – Connecticut’s largest tributary feeding into the Northeast’s largest river, the Connecticut River.EVAPORATION NATIONStretching 410 miles long, the Connecticut River Basin stretches through four New England states; it forms the border of Vermont and New Hampshire and divides Massachusetts and Connecticut. The river provides 70% of the water to New England; 41% of which comes from Vermont, 30% from New Hampshire and Connecticut, and the remainder from another six New England states. It collects water as far north as the Canadian border and spills it into the Atlantic Ocean to the south at Long Island, New York. Like much of the Northeast, a lush tree canopy covers 80% of the basin. It’s health is vital to the Northeast Region making it a target of study for the effects of climate change on the region.Laying awake at night here in Avon, Connecticut, tucked under a canopy of trees, saturated soil, and a mosquito dive-bombing my ears, the still presence of humidity surrounds my body and engulfs my mind. I contemplate animals like me sweating – perspiration; plants sweating – transpiration; and the soil sweating – evaporation. Just then, the rush of rustling leaves permeates the stagnant calm as buckets of rain come pouring down. Precipitation – the source of perspiration, transpiration, and evaporation. The trees, like me, struggle to transpire amidst the invisible gaseous vapors of humidity – the most abundant greenhouse gas there is. Humidity is the measure of the amount of water vapor in the air and is a primary player in the water cycle – and in cooling the planet. Just as sweat pulls heat from our body to be transported to the air, humid water vapors suck water and heat from animals, plants, soil, lakes, streams, and puddles and ferries it around the globe. Humidity is also invisible to the sun as radiation dances through the vapors and is absorbed by the earth. The soil in Avon is pregnant with fifteen days of record July rainfall and the sun’s stored energy radiates back into the atmosphere long after the sun has set; steaming me on the mattress like a plump white sticky bun. This nighttime reheating process explains why those hot Iowa nights would grow warmer as the night progressed. As the rich Iowa soil emanated stored heat, I wasn’t the only one sweating. So was the abundant Iowa corn. One acre of corn will transpire 3,000-4,000 gallons (11,400-15,100 liters) of water a day making significant contributions to the state’s humidity. Back here in Avon, the oak trees above me will contribute 40,000 gallons (151,000 liters) of water a year to the atmosphere. And I thought I sweat a lot. Scientists will sometimes combine the measures, and the letters, of evaporation and transpiration to form the term: evapotranspiration. Global climate models tell us evapotranspiration increases 2% for every degree of warming. Given global precipitation amounts must be balanced by evapotranspiration under a warming planet, it follows that the world should be seeing less frequent and shorter durations of precipitation. That is, we should also be seeing more and longer periods of dry days so that the atmosphere can be replenished with water vapors from evapotranspiration. But this is why it’s important to not just study the whole with aggregated data, but the highly variable parts as well with contextual data. Measures of specific regions can deviate significantly from a global mean. A 2014 study, quotes researchers from 2008 who “noted that over the period of 1895–1999, annual precipitation averaged over New England increased by 3.7% while the change of annual precipitation for individual states in New England varied between −12% and 29.5%.” This same study compared various sections of the Connecticut River Basin for each season. They analyzed the evapotranspiration, surface runoff, baseflow (stream flow between precipitation events), and soil moisture and found data to “support the theory that extreme precipitation events are becoming more common in a warming world.” Their “results show a clear increase in precipitation intensity for the Connecticut River Basin in the latter half of the 20th Century and early 21st Century.” While being careful to note it’s not always the case, they also find it “interesting to note” that “as precipitation intensity increases, frequency of precipitation is likely to decrease.”Another thing that kept me awake on that humid night in Connecticut was smoke. A good example of the nuanced and variable climate conditions regions can bring. Smoke from fires in drier areas of the Midwest United States, and parts of Canada and Pennsylvania drifted over the Northeast in a toxic smog that created an atmospheric red filter to the moon. A grim reminder of what may greet us in our return west to Seattle next week, through August, and well into October. Meanwhile, sorry Northeast, NOAA predicts “above normal precipitation is likely for the central and eastern Gulf Coast region and from the Appalachians to the Atlantic Coast” for August through October. Sounds like those mosquitoes will continue to do their happy dance.But before we head home, we stop in Maine to visit my sister and a couple more schools. Then back to water logged Boston to board a giant jet-fueled mosquito headed back against the prevailing easterly winds to the dry west coast. I’ll be ready to dry out in the mosquito-free air of Kirkland, Washington. Minus the smoke, of course. I also need to water the soil around the baby native ferns, firs, and vine maples I’m nursing to health in my nearby Kirkland park. Water that will start a cycle of evapotranspiration that, when combined with my perspiration, will form water vapors headed for the sky joining clouds drifting in from the Pacific Ocean headed east for more record setting precipitation in New England. Perhaps next year, they’ll be joined by my kids too. Subscribe at interplace.io

Hi guys! Thank you all for your patience on the upload schedule.  Erin and London have very busy Julys coming up so we thank you kindly for your patience as we figure out the best uploading schedule for all! Today we talk about man children, our coming out stories, and debate the best Disney villain song!! It's a suuuuuuuper fun episode and we can't wait for you to hear it

Hello Disney Friends and Happy 4th of July!! We hope you had a wonderful 4th, maybe even hung out with friends, watched some fireworks...it finally feels like life is getting back to normal after COVID and it feels SOOO good! We tried to theme this episode, so this week we discuss “National Treasure” from 2004. Some of you might not have realized this was made by Disney, but it was! So it counts! It also is about American History and stealing the Declaration of Independence is a main topic in this movie, so it definitely relates to the 4th of July. We talk about some memories we have of past 4 of the Julys...mostly about working in a restaurant. We have a fun chat about escape rooms, midnight premieres, and allllll the great and terrible movies Nicholas Cage has been in. We both agree on our favorite character in Part 1 and that doesn't change after watching the movie. Listen to find out who we both love. In Part 2, we basically nerd out on the whole movie. We love it so much and go through the whole thing and which parts we love the most. This movie is truly the perfect rainy day movie. Bored? Watch this. Hungry? Watch this. On a date? Come home and watch this. Just kidding….sorta. But really, we love everything about it and it keeps us entertained from start to finish and even after the hundredth time. So enjoy our episode on “National Treasure'', as this film truly is a National. Treasure. ;P Enjoy!

Join here.-------->F Geyrhalter:Welcome to the show, Muhammad and Eric.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Thank you very much. Yeah. Good to be here.F Geyrhalter:Yeah. So we're taping this just a few days into August and I have to say, when are you launching July, if not in July?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Well, actually we did launch July in July, which was a great start to the company. This is Muhammad speaking. We had a great release in the first of the three of our units, to actual customers in the month of July...F Geyrhalter:Oh fantastic.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:... which was very timely and fitting for our brand and actually also our journey. We started this company last July. So it's a very significant path for us. But it's a hot summer and we've been continuing deliveries through July into August and into September as well.F Geyrhalter:So currently people can pre-order it, but you're already delivering, which is amazing. That's great.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:That's right. So the way that we structured it is we allowed people to start joining the wait list and then beginning pre-orders. The demand has been phenomenal. So we actually have several different shipments of units coming in and we kept selling out of them. So it's still been on pre-order now till September. But we have already delivered those customers for the July slots and then the August slots.But we've just been so humbled and frankly overwhelmed by the tremendous reception that we received. People willing to put that money down for a product that the subject will receive after 30 days or even more than 30 days. And we're just so excited to bring July to all these different homes.F Geyrhalter:How in the world did you pull this off in 12 months? I mean, we're not talking about some technology company that writes code, we're talking about an actual... We're talking about R&D, we're talking about product, manufacturing, staffing, the whole shebang. How did you pull it off?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, that's a great question. And I think in a part of our approach that was seen as so important for us as we were starting off. Muhammad and I actually, we met... we worked together prior to this in a software setting. So I think we learned a lot there, and then to some extent, we took some of the learning there and really tried to take it into this space.I mean, it involved hardware, it involved manufacturing. I mean, where we can build a product quickly, get it out into the market quickly, learn a lot quickly. It launched relatively quickly, and we kind of used that as a foundation. So it's been a great journey, and we think we took a lot of the approaches from software that hadn't been evolved into the hardware yet, to get the products to market.I think, for us, the key was to just be really focused. Focused on what the goal was, that we wanted to launch this product for the summer of 2020. And then be really focused on what we were building. I mean, really, a laser focus kind of tunnel vision on what were the pain points that we wanted to solve in this space. And then how do we solve it. You know what I mean? We could talk about the process that we went through, but I think it was that focus and setting those goals early on, that really enabled us to stay on track.And in the year timeline, but also even within the midst of, what is it I'm looking for, a more unusual year than anything, than most years. So we're really excited that we were able to launch this product, within that one year period, and we are super excited to grow it here as well.And you know, one thing I'll add to that as well, when we got started on this journey, we had so many ideas of what we could do with the window air conditioner, how we could change it, what we could improve. But what we wanted to do is not just go away into a black box and think about what Eric and Muhammad want the window AC to be, but we wanted to learn what actual customers want from their window AC.So in the summer of 2019, as I mentioned, we started this company, July. We actually quit our jobs. We'd been working together before. And we put up a really quick website and we started reselling regular window ACs, that you can buy on the market today, but we'd sold them with our service model so that we could get into customer's homes so that we could speak to customers, understand their purchase journeys, understand what frustrated them about the existing ACs. So we took all of those learnings. Eric and I actually installed over a hundred ACs ourselves.F Geyrhalter:That's what I was wondering. It sounds like you were actually going home to home, in a hot summer in New York, installing air conditioning units. Well, your former coworkers must have been so proud of your journey. They're like, "You really made it guys. Good job."M Saigol and E Rauterkus:It was a lot of fun, honestly, it was so much fun. We got to interact with so many customers in a way that you wouldn't normally get the opportunity to see them in their lifestyles. Being in their home, getting this moment, while you're doing the installation, to talk to them and speak to them in a kind of casual setting. And then of course, learning about the product itself, with these installations. Eric and I had so many difficult situations because the product today is not really built out for the consumer that it's serving.So we took all these learnings, both from the customer, from the experience of the installation, and we said, "Okay, what are the key things that we need to do? And how can we achieve that in a 12 months' cycle?" And that's really how we did it. We mentioned that we focused and that was so critical to us because frankly, if we had just kind of gone down an endless pathway of thinking of new things, we wouldn't have been able to come to market in such a rapid period of time.F Geyrhalter:And you kind of hinted at that, but not only did you pull the whole thing off in 12 months, but there was the virus and still is. And I know with manufacturing founders, that is a huge disruptance. I mean, even for the ones that already have the entire chain completely figured out, for you guys, that must've been a huge disruptor. On the flip side, I'm sure that consumer demand must've been skyrocketing because everyone's suddenly stuck at home.I know that I purchased an AC unit for my back studio at home where I'm now, which is a quote unquote studio. It's literally a small little studio because I had to move out of my office, right? So suddenly ACS became something that were important for people where they never even thought they would actually put in a wall unit. How did that affect you positively and negatively?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, no, I think there are words inside to that point. 100%. The work from home situation, it did help us here from the demand side, but on the supply chain side, there were disruptions. We had a global supply chain, from day one. We knew that was a focus of Muhammad and myself, just how could we source the best in class pieces of this product from wherever they were.So there was no question, there was a lot of disruption, as we got started, but luckily, things that we were able to continue progressing. There were a few situations where the vendor was really shut down and where we didn't really see that vendor coming back online, so we had to pivot to a new vendor. Luckily, we had a couple of other vendors in the back of the line, and lined up, as we were doing the initial processes, when we were finding who we were going to partner with.So we were able to make some kind of key pivots early on. As the crisis unfolded, we were trying to shut down initially, then they were reopening, as the US was shutting down. And we were able to kind of squeeze our way through that. There was no question, there were some delays, but I think that was a big learning for us as we go forward too, is that we need to set up an organization that has some supply chain durability and flexibility, so that as whatever crisis converges, we are to where we can set up to pivot things around as needed.Then there's no question on the other side too. Yeah, exactly what you were saying, consumers, and some consumers that we've sold to this summer, we've noticed, they've never bought this product before, and that's quite interesting for us. There's a few different dynamics that drive that particular question, that one of them is exactly what you were describing. People who have managed to go without AC in the past because they only needed it for a few days and were mostly at work. And now, they're all stuck in their homes.And that's what's driven Muhammad and me, because earlier, with our presales introduction, we wanted to get out into the market, start selling these units quite early on, in the summer, while we were top of mind with people and then obviously delivering them as rapidly as we could, given the challenges that were on the supply chain side. So we were quite fortunate that we were still able to get everything moving this summer, butwe'll look back on it, I'm sure, in 10 years, and chuckle that this was the year that we started it.F Geyrhalter:Yeah, absolutely. I mean, there's something really interesting happening in the last couple of years when it comes to consumer trust, and you alluded to this prior. I know that your product design actually came from the same people who were involved with the luggage company, Away. And with Away, it was the same problem where they weren't able to deliver on time. And that kind of became their big brand story.People fell in love with the brand instead of the actual product. Like they wanted the product really badly, don't get me wrong, but then they had this weird time where they had to wait for, I remember, quite a long time, and the ladies at Away were really smart in figuring out, "Okay, if we don't have the product to touch people's hearts, how can we touch people's hearts?" And that's when they really started to think about brand and that's when they created this photo book that they sent out, instead of the actual product, blah, blah, blah, right?So I'm sure that for you too, a little bit of those pivots, must have been brand pivots where you suddenly thought, "Okay, well, we can't quite deliver, maybe as we promised. We know we will and people are eager, but now we actually need to start thinking about communications and how does the brand actually communicate?" And I think that's a huge opportunity today. Actually, it's interesting how that happens.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, absolutely, and for us, the branding is such a critical part of the story, and really two aspects of it that are so important. Number one, it's the feeling that this brand invites to the customers, in a way that the customers today or potential future customers, but also the authenticity and the transparency. So from day one, when we knew these disruptions were coming up, we wanted to be very clear with all of the people, as they joined our wait list, that we didn't have an exact date for them yet. We didn't take any money from customers till we knew when these units were going to be arriving, because we didn't want to put them in a situation where they've paid and it's going to be delayed.So, beyond just the brand itself, which we love and we think it's so important to customers today, and therefore it should be important to all brands, is being open, honest and transparent, every step of the way. Customers know that this is a strange time. Everybody is experiencing it. If you try to hide the fact or if you try to pretend, it's never going to develop a strong relationship with the customer. So that's really one aspect of it.And then you have the other side, in terms of what we created with July, we're so proud of and we think it's so important. Yes, it's the design of the product, yes, it's the features and functionality, the environmental aspects of the product as well. But it is also, the fact that there hasn't been a fresh brand in the appliance space in decades. I mean, if you think back to the 1950s and the 1960s and even onwards, some of the biggest, strongest brands in America were the appliance brands. GE Appliances meant something. It was a mark of distinction in the home. You see all the old adverts of families proudly displaying their appliances. They had a lot of meaning for the family, for the home, in those earlier decades.Over time, that has shifted. These brands no longer mean what they do in some of their most traditional categories. 70% of customers who own a window air conditioner, do not know which brand it is, even though it's sitting right there in their window and they're looking at it so frequently. And this is because of the lack of differentiation in the space. Both visually, but also in terms of the brand.So for us, it's a very important admission and a very key critical component is, we want to bring back that life into branding the space and really create July as that 21st century branded appliance feel that actually means something to customers. That they're excited about, that they know we'll be honest with them, that they know we'll try and do right by the environment and that they know we'll give them a service and an experience that is unmatched.F Geyrhalter:Well, and I think it's interesting because you lead very much with kind of like mid-century modern design. Very simple, very clean design, right? There's not much to it and that's exactly what's to it, right? Because usually, there's too much chunk, right? You just cleaned it up. You have this magnet piece that you kind of clip on on the top and that's it, right?? It's the cleanest thing ever.Which makes me, by the way, wonder if that magnet couldn't be used for a July logo magnet? But that's a different story. But The Wall Street Journal actually calls it, summer's unlikeliest status symbol. So that's pretty amazing. I mean, it's exactly where you wanted to be, right? That people actually talk about their appliance brand again. Which they haven't for so long?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, no, for sure. And I think that's a great example of something that came out of our process that we went through last summer, where we'd gone into the customers' homes. Muhammad described it earlier, but we were selling kind of just normal units you could buy at Best Buy. We're on bestbuy.com. That gave us that right to get into people's homes. What really jumped out to us was, people didn't want an appliance-looking thing in their window. They didn't want the lines and the dots. They didn't even want a nice looking appliance in their window.I remember, one quote from a customer was, "Why does it look like I put a washing machine in my window?" We would ask, "Would you love to have this in a drawer?" They wanted it to dine outwards, especially where you look at the window air conditioner unit, where in the markets that it's in and in the homes that it's in, like the market, the urban, America's oldest and populated cities. These beautiful old buildings, the window space is quite valuable and quite small.F Geyrhalter:Yeah.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:People are taking them so much, and then there's this thing that looks like a washing machine.F Geyrhalter:Yeah.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:So that just came from that experience of getting into there, giving ourselves a right to be organically in our customers' homes, talking to them. They want a design piece. Then they want to feel that it's their space. So we went around that summer and did those hundreds of installations and deliveries, and no two spaces are the same, and no two aesthetics are the same. Some people want to have a more cozier home, other people more industrial. The list goes on and on.So we wanted it to be a really clean... We approached it as being a really clean design piece, that could sit in anyone's home. It had this kind of platform for infinite customization, for anyone's home. That's when it really came together for us, and that we're really excited about.We launched this year with three covers, as you described. It gave us a really unique opportunity to explore materials that haven't been explored in appliances in really ever, or in quite a long time. We have done in wood and ash, we did a panel, we also did a really awesome fabric. My personal favorite is a gray fabric panel. We explored these interesting materials you don't expect with the clients, you expect more with the furniture, or a speaker, a very nice speaker, something of that nature.For us, it's just this opportunity to grow and kind of build this platform and we want to have many, many more of these kinds of front panels, collaborations, et cetera. We can express our brands in a way that really works in an individual customer's home. So yeah, it's exactly what you're saying, we want that product moving into a home, so it sits naturally there. If it sits naturally there in a beautiful way.So honestly, at the time, and currently, it is definitely a conversation piece, I think, in our customer's home, but hopefully over time as more and more people get their July, we can just be these really beautiful actually longterm panels.F Geyrhalter:Totally. I assume July is targeting first and second time apartment renters who have no AC, but I do have to say July the brand, not the window unit, has, how shall I say, an over the top hipster look, right? So now I hope I will not offend you, but this was within the big reason why I so badly wanted to have you on this very brand-centric show, because it is super intriguing.How did the graphic design look come about and what was the idea behind it? Because it very much begs to be hip, but the design language is kind of borderline, how shall I say, it's peculiar. It's interesting. There's an orange ticker band that scrolls and says hot indefinitely. And a dingbat color with its harsh radiant gradation. So overall, it feels like aspects could have been designed by, I don't know, Microsoft Clippy, but it appears to be making fun of itself or even that super hipster brand look of today, right? So, was it irony or was it not, or how did this come about?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, absolutely. So maybe, I'll start with kind of what we envisioned for the brand and then we can talk about its visual transformation as well. So for us, what you usually see in this space is your traditional ads of an air conditioner as almost someone who's wearing a winter coat inside because they're so cold and it's keeping them warm.We wanted to kind of turn that on the head. Summer is the time when you need window AC and what we wanted to do is instead of depicting summer as this thing you want to hide inside your home and prepare a winter coat, we realize we love summer. Summer is one of the most wonderful times of the year. You get to go outside, you get to the beach, you get to be free and outside, and you're not cooped up in your home like in the winter time.So with July, we wanted to embrace that magic of summer, that feeling of joy, that feeling of carefreeness because we want our customers of course, to remember July when they're thinking about their summer plans or what they're doing about the summer. So for us, it was, instead of taking that kind of negative summer, where it's too hot and too sticky, it's that summer is a wonderful time and July will help you enjoy it even more then maybe previously.In terms of the visual direction, so a lot of that filter through, you'll see, we use a lot of summery iconography. The hot, hot, hot décor. Again, something similar to summer. But what we also wanted to do was, there have been some great new brands in the past few years and it comes to be that there are ways that an aesthetic is established. We wanted to be a little bit different then that. We wanted to push the envelope in terms of what the visual design would be, and make sure that it fits with our brand, which is very fun, which is very lively, which is very joyous. So we wanted to have a little fun with it.We've created a website that you've seen in all of our materials, where there are these fun elements. There are different colors. They are bright colors because we wanted this to feel different. We didn't want people to say, "Oh, this looks just like those other six brands, and other six categories that I've seen." But it's something really fresh, something that's unique to us and that really fits and resonates with our brand. And that's really how we came to July.F Geyrhalter:How did you decide on the brand name, July?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:The name, July, really stems from the brand that we wanted to build around summer, around the season. We wanted to make sure that customers knew, when they thought about summer, when they thought about the season, they would also think about us as a brand. July has both, it's about that fun, it's getting out there, it's enjoying yourself, but you also know it's going to be hot. So we want people, as the heat starts to sink in, as they start to talk about the month of July, that they also think about the brand that will help them stay cool in their home, in a beautiful way.We did, we struggled with the brand name. We wanted to find the right name that would encapsulate this identity. And what we love about July is that it's immediately recognizable. It's distinct from other brands as well, and it really relates to this feeling of summer, which is still critical to what we do.F Geyrhalter:And it makes tons of sense, right? Your domain name is july.ac. Your Instagram handle is, @feelslike.july. It seems like there were a couple of corners that you had to cut, in order to be able to call yourself July, obviously, because there's lots of Julys out there, not only the month, but people with the name July, et cetera. Does it really matter or does it not matter, because people just look for July air conditioning and they'll find you?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:So we thought a tremendous amount about the name in terms of how it will present itself to the world. We looked at SEO, we looked at the availability of various handles, like the Instagram handle, et cetera. And July is common. There's no two ways about that. But what we really look at, at ads, is there any other brand competing in this space for the board of knowledge around July, and the answer was none. Other than the fact that it was a summer month, there wasn't really any other brand.So what we've seen is that people are looking for us. They're coming and searching for us. You search July air conditioner, or July AC, we'll be right there at the top. So as a lesson to all the brands, I think it's less about the name itself and how common that is and more about how are people looking for your brand and how will they find it? Is there anybody else that they might come across by mistake instead of you if they're searching for something? And really, we haven't seen any adverse impacts of that, so we're very happy with where we landed and how it's going.F Geyrhalter:That's fantastic. That's what I thought and that's what I hoped. And you, Muhammad, you come from a product manager background, which included a stint at the New York Times, and you both met at Boston Consulting Group's Digital Ventures where you gained experience in launching innovative new businesses in a lot of industries, right? Med Tech, Elder Care. Now that you've gone through this journey yourself, for a year, now it's more difficult, now you're actually in it, what does branding mean to you? The idea of branding. What does it mean to you guys?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, so branding is so critical in all these different respects, but what I think the most important thing, regardless of what industry you're in, regardless of what company we're talking about, it is about the relationship that you have with your customer. It is how they think about you, how they feel about you and perhaps most importantly, how much they trust you to deliver for them and to do the right thing, more broadly.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:So, brand is not just branding. It's not just the visual identity. Of course, that's one piece of it, but it's much deeper than that. It is, what is the connection? What is the emotional connection that you have with a customer that makes them not only want to come to purchase from you, but want to tell their friends about you, that want to share it with the world and spread it, and then come back of course, again and again.I don't think you can be surface level with the brand. You can't just say the right things and have winning copy and have beautiful images. You have to walk the walk if you want to really survive. Customers are smart, customers, they can smell lies and dishonesty, and by the way, the important thing, even more important to me than branding, it's actually taking actions to deliver against the promises that you make to your customers.F Geyrhalter:And you are smack deep inside of that right now. As their delivery truck's pulling in and I know Eric had to put himself on mute for a second to get some product in. And I love that. I mean, we were right in that right now. So it's an exciting time.But you guys have actually much bigger goals, I heard, namely to become the 21st century consumer appliance brand. So are you planning to be a house of brands as we call it? So starting with July, on the AC, and then moving into different categories within the appliance arena? Each new brand being one on its own, or an audience or name or a marketing campaign?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, that's a great question, and I'm back, and I apologize about the truck there.F Geyrhalter:No worries.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:But no, and I think that the way Muhammad and I always look at it is, it's always an evolving kind of question, looking at where do we want to go, et cetera, and how we want to structure it. But I think what you've hit on is exactly right. What we see is such an interesting opportunity to be this 21st century appliance company, especially in this large appliance space. And for us, the window AC was that perfect starting point.And it's exactly what Muhammad hit at earlier. It's that these appliance brands of the 1950s and the 1960s, they meant something to the consumer. And they meant something from a product perspective, from a design perspective and from a functionality perspective in that right to own this product and then to kind of embrace that in your kitchen, and your home. But then they also meant something from a brand and a service perspective. You know the Maytag Man, a kind of a classic example from a bygone era. But it was quality and it was trust, and that kind of has fallen away.We especially think for the consumers, and in my generation and the generation above us and the generation behind us, these people who will be the majority of homeowners in the next 10, 15, 20 years. They're looking for a brand in this space that does really high-quality products that fits into their style. But in addition to that, brings a modern service smile to them, in a way that you can get these products, in the way that you buy these products, and then the way that you maintain and engage with these products.So that's where we see that it is such an awesome kind of opportunity for our brand to grow into. The reality is these brands that kind of dominate the space in terms of market share, they have lost really all connections and relationships with the customers, from a product design perspective, and also from a sales and a customer communication perspective. So, our goal is to be laser focused on the window AC here, and the AC space in general, as we roll out this product, but we think a lot of these same dynamics kind of take hold and cross over.F Geyrhalter:This may be a little bit too early to ask, but any idea of what your next brand may be tackling?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:So, we've been investigating across the spectrum and we've seen so many opportunities in different categories. Right now, we haven't made that decision yet as to what the next phase will be, that we'll be tackling. But it will be an appliance that people are craving new design at an affordable price point and they're just looking for a hassle free way to get it into their home, with a brand that will have fantastic customer service, that will do the right thing for the environment, and then will deliver them a delightful experience. So, more to come from us. We're going to see tomorrow the future. We'll let you know.F Geyrhalter:Awesome. And on your site, you're saying that in addition to implementing this technology, and I'm quoting you here, "We, as a company, are trying to do our part in mitigating the impact of cooling on our planet. July will be offsetting the emissions of every AC we sell with a partnership with carbonfund.org and dispose of customers' old Acs in an ecologically friendly way, avoiding refrigerant leakage that is harmful to the planet. We are and will continue to invest in technologies that create a more sustainable future of cooling." I mean, this makes so much sense, right? So, is the idea of cooling people in a new, a different and definitely a hotter world, the big drive? And will you focus mainly on that aspect of appliances or could it go anywhere?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah so, it is certainly our focus. It is very important. We think there is great opportunity. That's why we started here, to build a better product, that are better for the environment, and that you can get them in a more easy manner. There is a lot of opportunity in this space.But the cooling space is just one way to go about that mindset. You know, the way that we approach it is, whatever we do, we want to make sure we do it right and we do it well and we deliver for our customers. So we'll never be in a situation where we've spread ourselves over so many different verticals, just doing one product here and one product there. So right now, I guess, there are many more products in this space that have a lot of the same issues and customer frustrations that we want to solve, but then our ambition comes from the outcome. But, we'll always take it and pace it out to the right level, to make sure that whatever we are doing is really delivering on our promise.F Geyrhalter:Absolutely. Now, edutain me, as we come slowly to an end here, edutain me with this AC naïve question of mine, but it's been on my mind. I feel one of the utmost important aspects of installing an AC unit has been left out of pretty much all online installation videos. The parts are not even included in the unit to do that and it seems to potentially be the same with July, which was surprising and likely means that my assumptions are all incorrect.So here you go. I'm talking about how to ensure that no thieves can just open the window, right? Usually people after they install the unit or get the unit installed usually, right, because most units are not as easily installable as yours, but usually people end up cutting a piece of wood and blocking the window that way, which seems like a perfect, additional eyesore that begs for innovation, surprise and delight. Are you guys tackling that or does it not even need to be tackled and I'm missing something?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:That's a great question. There are a lot of kind of other things around, whether we see, add-ons, if you will, but I think, we'll slowly be tackling them as we come across things like that.Exactly as you said, this was another great example of a learning that we learned on our journey last summer, which is our easy installation frame, and it just boggles the mind that no-one else is learning about this. That was one of the worst parts, people around you doing other installs, 100-plus installs, where you were up in these high-rises in New York dangling out of a back-heavy box. There are these kind of spokes, these metal elements on the back, cutting your hands, and you're sweating because it's hot and you're trying not to drop it.So we focused a lot on this installation system, that we designed and developed, and we're super excited about that. And yes, exactly to your point, it locks itself into place so you can actually mount it to a window. So that makes it so that window can't come open, around the top of that installation frame. It prevents that risk. But there is a lot of different things.Like you said, there are some sort of quick-lock locking seams, and a safe install, like a locking system that you can secure with a window. One thing we did this year is we rolled out these custom filters and we sold them in our unit, that really are the first kind of filters for a window AC that actually does something, that purifies the air. So we see a lot of other opportunities to improve on this space.But we're really excited about new learning solutions that appear, that gives the customers a safe, easy, reliable way to take it in and out of the equipment, which is all as safely as we could, to try to not lose your window all year round. It's very, very safe.F Geyrhalter:So even if it's just a "fix this with three screws on the top", you can't possibly pull the window up from the outside because the unit is too heavy, I assume?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Right, that's exactly it.F Geyrhalter:Okay. And that's what got me. Perfect. Thank you for educating me. I appreciate it. So what I always like to finish off with is if you would be able to describe your brand in one word. So July, right. With Coca Cola, it used to be happiness. Maybe it still is and no one knows. Most people don't care. With Everlane, it's definitely radical transparency, right? Zappos has customer service. What is one word that could describe your brand? If you're able to just put it all, the entire brand into one?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, I'll give you three words. That is dealing, and you know for us it's about capturing the joys of being outside. The freshness and the vibrancy of color and life that blossoms into summer. Being able to go to the beach, sitting out, dining outside on your rooftop in New York. Just getting out there and being free and taking a road trip, or whatever it might be. So for us, what we're trying to do with July is capture that feeling of summer, and actually bring those delightful moments even into your home.F Geyrhalter:Which in my eyes, despite your smart product, is one of the smartest moves you've done, from a brand perspective. To actually celebrate what people fight against when they put this in their house. I think it's really brilliant. Do you have a final piece of advice, maybe brand advice, but also maybe just product advice for product founders who are struggling right now during this pandemic to bring their own ideas to realization? Do you have any advice for them as you look back at your one year journey? You already talked about focus and I already checked that off as one big takeaway, but is there anything else where you say, "Look, here's something that we learned that we just really wish everyone would do."M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah. I'm sure we do. I have one, I'm sure Muhammad, you have something like that. Yeah. I'm sure we have many. I'll let you go first. Feel free to jump in. You know, 100%, the thing that I have learned here in this process is, how can you find really clever ways to test concepts, particularly in a low cost manner, early on? That's been so important, from the first Muhammad and I have been taking. I think it's the reason why we had a lot of opportunity, by getting over a lot of the problems that went ahead.You know what I mean? You can come into this summer, with the pandemic here, et cetera, and because we found some clever ways to test things. The last summer example, it was a great one. Those went into brand too because we actually had a test brand that we were using last summer, and we evolved. We made some changes to it because we were likely to make some changes as well, as we launched the brand.So we just challenged ourselves to look at this place and see what would be good. It was pretty standard to say, "Oh, we don't have a real product, we're going to sell ACs now." So we got a developer on the project, telling him we were selling AC systems. We said, "No, we actually need to sell ACs today that are not our own product, and that's worth doing and we can learn a ton from that. And then we can design and develop our own product beyond that."So that's been my biggest learning and what I'll take, and what we'll continue to do over the course of this company and into the future. It's just finding clever ways to get real products out there, real brands out there, even if they're test brands, to real people who would actually think about and engage with your product and your brand. And then do it in a low cost way and then take it from there and build on it.Things don't have to be perfect. You know that's the best kind of learning as well. You don't have to have the perfect brand. On day one, as you start to test things and everything. You don't have to have everything locked and loaded. There can be a lot of open questions, but you answer a lot of those questions within the process.So that's my biggest thing that I tell everyone, is just think of a creative way to get out in the market and do something with your idea. And that will ignite the entire process. So something we did and something we'll continue to do for sure.F Geyrhalter:Absolutely. Muhammad? M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Yeah, absolutely, that's one of my biggest take-aways as well, just as Eric said it. It couldn't be more important than overemphasize. And then on the branding side, what I could say is, be willing to take a little bit of a risk with the brand. Don't just fit it into exactly what you're kind of seeing out there.Have your own perspective on aesthetic, have your own perspective on design, make sure that it actually relates to the brand promises that you have developed and what you're delivering for your customers. But customers will respond to something that looks fresh and looks different, that makes them smile, that they haven't seen before. So put your own perspective, put your own brand interpretation of the current general aesthetics and don't be afraid to do that. It will pay dividends.F Geyrhalter:And what you just said is exactly why I wanted to have you on the show. So thank you. That was fantastic. You got me back nicely too, which I was begging for. So I do appreciate it. So this will most probably air at the end of October, but still listeners who fell in love with July and they're already, they're either still sweating it, or they're already sweating and thinking about the next summer, how can they get their hands on it?M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Exactly, exactly. So around October, you can always come to our website at july.ac, where we have these really awesome programs heading to the fall and into the holiday season, where you can reserve, you can lock in your July for February, for the end of the spring, early summer, according to when you want it to be. Just make sure, you have your unit reserved for delivery on that first hot day.So you'll be able to cover when, say, pick what unit you want, the size that's right for your home, the front panel that speaks to you, and you'll be able to lock in your delivery date for spring of 2021. So you'll stop on over and we're always there to answer questions as well. So please chat on our website, call us directly or email us with any of your questions and we can get your unit right as the season starts next year.F Geyrhalter:That's awesome. Thank you both for having been on the show so early on, with your brand. This was a big delight, to use your words, to have you on. And it was a blast and also, it was extremely insightful. So thank you so much for your time, and best of luck for the next month, to get through the hot summer with your brand and then for your brand extensions in the years to come.M Saigol and E Rauterkus:Thank you very much. Thank you. Yeah, for sure.

Here is Julys edition of Acoustic pleasure featuring a guest mix from Paul Hawcroft

Episode 8: Let's reflect back on Julys episode and how incredible the two people Grace had on her podcast were! If you didn't already listen to the episodes, after this one; you will ;)

I’m low key enjoying how all the months have little “2020 sucks this way” themes. Julys theme was nothing new or too crazy though, it was deeply American while also being out of this world. Will Smith dealing with his relationship entanglements and the pentagon confirming they have a craft “not made on this earth”. […]

Fünfzig Folgen von Fernsehen für alle. Zum Jubiläum präsentieren Selma (@selmuggle/@trashlessio) und ich (@@dennisderdoedel) eine Show, in der geplaudert, geehrt und geknobelt wird. Natürlich darf zu unserem Ehrentag niemand aus dem Ensemble fehlen und so lässt sich keiner lumpen, auf einen Sprung vorbeizuschauen und die wichtigsten Medienpreise Deutschlands kurz über die Hecke zu schmeißen. Und noch viel mehr! Im ersten Teil der Sendung nehmen wir einmal die komplette Programmanküdigung der RTL-Gruppe auseinander und analysieren, warum uns manche neue Sendungen auf winzigen Spartenkanälen gefallen könnten, während uns allein von der Idee einer Barth/Pocher/Tall-Show schlecht wird. Im zweiten Teil muss ich antreten im von Selma und Natalie vorbereiteten Trivia-Quiz namens Blamieren oder blamieren?, in dem ich mein Wissen über fünfzig Folgen Fernsehen für alle unter Beweis stellen muss. Zuletzt darf jedes Mitglied der FFA-All-Stars jeweils einen Preis an eine Person und an einer Sendung vergeben, die ihn oder sie im Zeitraum der vergangenen fünfzig Folgen aus welchem Grund auch immer berührt, verblüfft oder einfach nur unterhalten hat. Und das war's dann eigentlich auch schon. Fünfzig Folgen völlig irrelevantes Geblubber über die nationale und internationale Fernsehlandschaft. Fünfzig Folgen halbgare Gags. Fünfzig Folgen sinnlose Spielchen. Aber hey, ihr wart dabei. Und es hat Spaß gemacht. Danke, dass ihr dabei wart!

Larry Weber observes that if this month's weather continues as it has, we'll have one of the wettest and hottest Julys on record. But the rain has benefitted the many ripening berries around the region. Basswood trees are in bloom right now which some beekeepers say creates the best honey. Many late summer flowers are beginning their bloom cycles as well, including tall sunflowers. Canada thistle is starting to seed, providing food and nesting material for American goldfinches who mate later in the year than many other songbirds. Frogs are out, the toads survived the dry spell in June, and many butterflies are in the air too. Comet Neowise can be seen on clear mornings in the far north sky.

Hey Everyone! In today's episode check in with everyone through our new segment What's Poppin and we recap our 4th of Julys across the Nation. We also give our opinions on Disney plus' release of Hamilton (don't worry we keep it brief lol). And for our main topic we break down Tiktok Teens vs. PODUS. Boy what a time to be living so grab a seat or a snack and join on us! Thanks for listening! MC --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Julys installment of To Ends Of The Earth, hope you guys are still all good. This month's big bag of tracks comes from some nice big names that we really like at the moment from likes of, Matt Fax, A & B, and cheeky track from the very day I decided to start DJING myself.

TONIGHT on Front Porch Sex Talk with Monica Lee I am answering questions that listeners have sent in about being non orgasmic and if there is truly such a thing as being "multi orgasmic". I am also going to continue the conversation that we did not finish last week on "depressed 4th of Julys" and how you can still be intimate with that issue. As women we are sometimes misunderstood and called crazy. Tonight will be the platform for women to call in and talk about their issues they are having with dating, love, sex, relationships and whatever they want. Men don't always understand us, but hopefully tonight we can shed some light on on the translation of the goddess. So...darlings, make sure you grab a seat....a drink....and sit a spell with me on my Front Porch where we talk some real talk about those things our mama never told us. Phone lines will be open for calls, questions and just to say hello! See you there honey....all my love...Monica Lee xoxo

Escucha el chiste de la Gladys y la Julys, y el de Venancio y la horchata.

The crew covered some different areas where 'new heights' were showcased on different levels. According to ESPN, on Monday, Steph announced that he would financially support the Bison’s golf teams for the next six years. Howard plans to have their men and women’s golf teams up and running for the 2020-2021 season. Howard previously competed at the Division II level. According to school officials, they believe the team disbanded some time during the 1970s. Nice! This one is a 'new height' that we didn't want to necessarily experience. Apparently the average global temperature in July was 1.71 degrees above the average which is 60.4 degrees F. Breaking the record held by July of 2016 coincidentally. The most alarming part about all of this is that 9 of the 10 hottest Julys have happened since 2005 and the last 5 have happened in the last 5 years. Meaning every year it’s getting hotter and hotter. I BLAME DONALD J. TRUMP! In good news, Tracy Morgan has landed a role Eddie Murphy's, "Coming to America 2" highly anticipated sequel. The former Saturday Night Live star joins a list of new cast members that includes Wesley Snipes, Leslie Jones and If Beale Street Could Talk’s KiKi Layne. Although the sequel will have plenty of newcomers, Coming To America fans will also get to see a few familiar faces. Arsenio Hall, James Earl Jones and Shari Headley are all set to reprise their roles from the original film, which was released in 1988. Production for Coming To America 2 is scheduled to begin later this month. The movie is currently scheduled to debut on December 18, 2020. WE CAN'T WAIT!!! The "Old Town Road" rapper was finally taken out by newcomer Billie Eilish after spending months at #1. The singer’s hit "Bad Guy" has also landed Billie Eilish in the record books – no artist has ever spent nine weeks at number two before hitting the top of the Billboard Hot 100 countdown. At 17, she also becomes the first person born this century to hit number one, and the youngest since Lorde took Royals to the top in 2013. I never thought I would see this happen. Bugatti releases a new $9M car and Floyd Mayweather buys it...not surprised. The $9 Million is just the starting price for the car, and only 10 of them will be made. The cars sold out within minutes of their announcement. This news comes at a time when Mayweather is trending again - amidst rumors that the champ will fight his nemesis Manny Pacquaio - for a second time. Until next time!

Matt and I both spent our Julys finishing projects, and we talk about that.

While still known as The 80its, Will and Ray talk about current 1980s news, important events from Julys in the 1980s and thank their followers.

What is your expectation???

On this episode of ASP, Hunter Smit guests on the show to speak on a wide range of subjects from DIY to creating your own art, to having his room ransacked by monkeys in Vietnam. Hunter sure can weave a story, so enjoy! Nick and Trent also sit down to recap their respective 4th of Julys, how Nick's frustrations with dating apps just frustrates Trent, why Nick can go on hating Canada, why Trent appreciates wedding KFABE, and why comedians make rap videos great. Sit back and enjoy. This episode is good when paired with a car ride or a burger and beer but not all of them at once.

Intern Austin Capps is put on trial for stealing beers from the office, the guys recap their 4th of Julys and the Dead and co shows, and Intern David Graves talks about butt robots. Panelists: Koozie, Swig, Hmmx, David Graves

The Trump plan also phases out the tax exemption on life insurance interest for high-income earners, ends the current tax treatment of carried interest for speculative partnerships that do not grow businesses or create jobs and are not risking their own capital, and reduces or eliminates other loopholes for the very rich and special interests. These reductions and eliminations will not harm the economy or hurt the middle class. Because the Trump plan introduces a new business income rate within the personal income tax code, they will not harm small businesses either. A one-time deemed repatriation of corporate cash held overseas at a significantly discounted 10% tax rate. Since we are making America’s corporate tax rate globally competitive, it is only fair that corporations help make that move fiscally responsible. U.S.-owned corporations have as much as $2.5 trillion in cash sitting overseas. Some companies have been leaving cash overseas as a tax maneuver. Under this plan, they can bring their cash home and put it to work in America while benefitting from the newly-lowered corporate tax rate that is globally competitive and no longer requires parking cash overseas. Other companies have cash overseas for specific business units or activities. They can leave that cash overseas, but they will still have to pay the one-time repatriation fee. An end to the deferral of taxes on corporate income earned abroad. Corporations will no longer be allowed to defer taxes on income earned abroad, but the foreign tax credit will remain in place because no company should face double taxation.
